WhiteKnight CL797R rotates then stops?

I solved this problem. I turned the PCB over (which is above the drum) and spotted a dry joint on one of the relays. I cleaned it off and resoldered. Switched it on... and all started working again!!!!

Wow, that was a quick response. Water isn't going into the bottle. I can see it travelling up the pipe, then it stops part way up the pipe (just past the water outlet cap). Sometimes when I try to run it, the dryer does its stop as mentioned and the water bottle full sensor light comes on. I have to take out the water bottle and put it back in again to clear it ( even though the bottle is empty).

I reckon your answer could be right. I don't think its the capacitor as the drum spins no problem on the first start. I don't think its the dryer sensor as that is about 1.5cm carbon left and its making good contact.

>>A build up of water in the base reservoir
How do I get to the base reservoir to check it. Does this mean I need to take the back off and take the drum out?

Thanks.

is water going in to the collection bottle?
A build up of water in the base reservoir could stop the dryer in it's tracks!
